The Promise of Happiness (Natalie and Samuel) novel Chapter 69

Chapter 69

Natalie

Ya’

Steven, who was in the car, slapped himself on the forehead.

How could I forget about Natalie, of all people? I should‘ve known from the beginning that they went to see Natalie! 

“Ms Nichols, could you please send me your address? I will come immediately and pick them up.”

Natalie glanced at the two kids’ chubby faces. “Yes. I‘ll send you the location. Sophia and Franklin are safe with me, so you can come later.”

“BUL” 

“Is there a problem;”

“No, not at all.” 

“Okay. Bye.” 

Although Steven was not the head of the family, he was still the second young master of the Bowers family. However, he was no match for Natalie.

This woman is not only able to handle the two little ones, but Sam treats her differently, too. She’s not just anyone.

Steven gave Samuel a call right after knowing that Sophia and Franklin were safe. 

“Sam, they’re at Natalie’s house. I’ll go over later to pick them up,” said Steven. 

“You don‘t have to.” 

“What do you mean?”

“Ill pick them up myself.” The corners of Samuel‘s lips curled up as he spoke. 

 

“But don‘t you have a video conference with Epea?” 

“Yes, so you‘ll do it.” 

Steven was rendered speechless. 

Does Sam no longer trust me with taking care of the children? Fine, I‘ll take care of the meeting. Having a meeting with the senior executives from Epea is so much easier than taking care of those two naughty children. 

It did not take long for the food to arrive. 

Natalie placed the fried chicken, fries, and drinks on the table. 

The two children stared at the delicious fried chicken but did not reach out to take it. 

“Why are you guys not eating?” 

“Is this good? We haven‘t eaten it before.” Franklin pointed at the crispy fried chicken and asked. 

Why is the Bowers family so strict? The two of them are already five years old. How could they have never had any fried food? 

Samuel looked amused. “Hmm?” 

“But I was on the phone with...” 

Samuel said with his deep voice, “Steven is in a meeting, so I‘m here to pick Franklin and Sophia up.” 

Natalie fel that there was something wrong with what he said, but she could not pinpoint it. Thus, she could only step back and let Samuel in. 

As soon as Samuel entered the dining room, he saw Franklin and Sophia eating drumsticks

The whole table was filled with unhealthy fast foods.

“Daddy.” Shocked, Franklin dropped the drumstick he was holding when he saw Samuel

Sophia hung her head guiltily, too. 

Samuel frowned slightly and asked unhappily, “This is what you‘re feeding them?” 

Natalie did not think there was anything wrong with eating some fast food once in a while. She took a fry, dipped it in some ketchup, and attempted to feed Samuel. “Try it. It‘s good.” 

 

When Samuel refused to eat it, she did not mind and was about to eat it herself. 

However, before she could do so, Samuel grabbed her wrist forcefully and ate the fry from her hand. 

At the same time, his lips and the tip of his tongue touched her fingertips.
